Otherwise looks good. Everything seems to be working.

My only wish is to open a protocol link defined in an HTML <a ref> tag, which references a file://, onenote://, calibre://, mailto://, or https:// or any other sort of URL.

• The only color I change is the text background, to white, because Qt changes it to a dark grey when it feels like it. I don't touch any other attributes, html or markdown. What color is the text in dark mode supposed to be, in your opinion? I should override the original html?

• The Qt widget being used is QTextEdit, not QtWebEngine (or previously, QtWebKit). The Qt Web classes all are true browsers, and do what basic browsers do.
  
  I made the mistake of using QtWebKit in my Entities Manager plugin to edit HTML notes; a year later I had to redo it for QtWebEngine. It does open links, though, now that I think about it.
  
  I will look at what I can do from a starting point of QTextEdit. Not full browser-like functionality, that is for sure. Maybe I could emulate some or all of the link types you specified. Don't know yet. Stay tuned.
